Question

a point is translated on the coordinate plane from (4,-8) to (4,-6). create a function to show this translation. which function shows the appropriate translation? (1 point)

o g(y)=y

o f(x)=x + 2

o g(y)=y + 2

o g(y)=y - 2

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze coordinates change

Original (4,-8) → New (4,-6). x: 4→4 (no change). y: -8→-6 (Δy=2).

Step2: Identify translation direction

Vertical translation up by 2 (y increases by 2).

Step3: Match with function

Function for y-change: g(y)=y+2.

Answer:

C. g(y)=y+2
